of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in portrait orientation in the Rear Tray.
Set the Paper Thickness Leverto the left. For details on the Paper Thickness Lever,refer to

The paper cleans the paper feed roller as it feeds through the machine.
If the problem is not resolved, wipe the paper feed roller (A) located on the right side inside the
Rear Tray with a moistened cotton swab or the like. Rotate the roller (A) manually as you clean
it. Do not touch the roller with your fingers; rotate it with the cotton swab. If this does not solve
the problem, contact your Canon service representative.
